This extends a test in the previous commit to assert that we don't build
extra rustc compilers even when the "extended" option is set to true.
This involved some internal refactoring to have more judicious usage of
`compiler_for`, added in the previous commit, as well.
Various `dist::*` targets were refactored to be parameterized with a
`Compiler` instead of a `stage`/`host`, and then the various parameters
within the `Extended` target were tweaked to ensure that we don't ever
accidentally ask for a stage2 build compiler when we're distributing
something.
This commit furthers the previous one to ensure that we don't build an
extra stage of the compiler in CI. A test has been added to rustbuild to
ensure that this doesn't regress, and then in debugging this test it was
hunted down that the `dist::Std` target was the one erroneously pulling
in the wrong compiler.
The `dist::Std` step was updated to instead account for the "full
bootstrap" or not flag, ensuring that the correct compiler for compiling
the final standard library was used. This was another use of the
`force_use_stage1` function which was in theory supposed to be pretty
central, so existing users were all evaluated and a new function,
`Builder::compiler_for`, was introduced. All existing users of
`force_use_stage1` have been updated to use `compiler_for`, where the
semantics of `compiler_for` are similar to that of `compiler` except
that it doesn't guarantee the presence of a sysroot for the arguments
passed (as they may be modified).
Perhaps one day we can unify `compiler` and `compiler_for`, but the
usage of `Builder::compiler` is so ubiquitous it would take quite some
time to evaluate whether each one needs the sysroot or not, so it's
hoped that can be done in parallel.
Rework how bootstrap tools are built
This makes bootstrap tools buildable and testable in stage 0 with the downloaded bootstrap compiler, futhermore, it makes it such that they cannot be built in any other stage.
Notably, this will also mean that compiletest may need to wait a cycle before it can use changes to `libtest`, as it no longer depends on the in-tree libtest.
The new git submodule src/llvm-project is a monorepo replacing src/llvm
and src/tools/{clang,lld,lldb}. This also serves as a rebase for these
projects to the new 8.x branch from trunk.
The src/llvm-emscripten fork is unchanged for now.
This fixes a mistake where miri was accidentally left out of the
build-manifest parsing, meaning that today's nightly generated a
manifest with invalid urls!
When building a distributed compiler on Linux where we use ThinLTO to
create the LLVM shared object this commit switches the compiler to
dynamically linking that LLVM artifact instead of statically linking to
LLVM. The primary goal here is to reduce CI compile times, avoiding two+
ThinLTO builds of all of LLVM. By linking dynamically to LLVM we'll
reuse the one ThinLTO step done by LLVM's build itself.
Lots of discussion about this change can be found [here] and down. A
perf run will show whether this is worth it or not!

This commit switches the standard library to using the `backtrace-sys`
crate from crates.io instead of duplicating the logic here in the Rust
repositor with the `backtrace-sys`'s crate's logic.
Eventually this will hopefully be a good step towards using the
`backtrace` crate directly from crates.io itself, but we're not quite
there yet! Hopefully this is a small incremental first step we can take.

Ever since we added a Cargo-based build system for the compiler the
standard library has always been a little special, it's never been able
to depend on crates.io crates for runtime dependencies. This has been a
result of various limitations, namely that Cargo doesn't understand that
crates from crates.io depend on libcore, so Cargo tries to build crates
before libcore is finished.
I had an idea this afternoon, however, which lifts the strategy
from #52919 to directly depend on crates.io crates from the standard
library. After all is said and done this removes a whopping three
submodules that we need to manage!
The basic idea here is that for any crate `std` depends on it adds an
*optional* dependency on an empty crate on crates.io, in this case named
`rustc-std-workspace-core`. This crate is overridden via `[patch]` in
this repository to point to a local crate we write, and *that* has a
`path` dependency on libcore.
Note that all `no_std` crates also depend on `compiler_builtins`, but if
we're not using submodules we can publish `compiler_builtins` to
crates.io and all crates can depend on it anyway! The basic strategy
then looks like:
* The standard library (or some transitive dep) decides to depend on a
crate `foo`.
* The standard library adds
```toml
[dependencies]
foo = { version = "0.1", features = ['rustc-dep-of-std'] }
```
* The crate `foo` has an optional dependency on `rustc-std-workspace-core`
* The crate `foo` has an optional dependency on `compiler_builtins`
* The crate `foo` has a feature `rustc-dep-of-std` which activates these
crates and any other necessary infrastructure in the crate.
A sample commit for `dlmalloc` [turns out to be quite simple][commit].
After that all `no_std` crates should largely build "as is" and still be
publishable on crates.io! Notably they should be able to continue to use
stable Rust if necessary, since the `rename-dependency` feature of Cargo
is soon stabilizing.
As a proof of concept, this commit removes the `dlmalloc`,
`libcompiler_builtins`, and `libc` submodules from this repository. Long
thorns in our side these are now gone for good and we can directly
depend on crates.io! It's hoped that in the long term we can bring in
other crates as necessary, but for now this is largely intended to
simply make it easier to manage these crates and remove submodules.
This should be a transparent non-breaking change for all users, but one
possible stickler is that this almost for sure breaks out-of-tree
`std`-building tools like `xargo` and `cargo-xbuild`. I think it should
be relatively easy to get them working, however, as all that's needed is
an entry in the `[patch]` section used to build the standard library.
Hopefully we can work with these tools to solve this problem!

This commit replaces many usages of `File::open` and reading or writing
with `fs::read_to_string`, `fs::read` and `fs::write`. This reduces code
complexity, and will improve performance for most reads, since the
functions allocate the buffer to be the size of the file.
I believe that this commit will not impact behavior in any way, so some
matches will check the error kind in case the file was not valid UTF-8.
Some of these cases may not actually care about the error.
This commit deletes the `alloc_system` crate from the standard
distribution. This unstable crate is no longer needed in the modern
stable global allocator world, but rather its functionality is folded
directly into the standard library. The standard library was already the
only stable location to access this crate, and as a result this should
not affect any stable code.
Bump cargo-vendor version
Currently we pin `cargo-vendor` to 0.1.4, which doesn't set the `User-Agent` HTTP header. crates.io is going to require that header in the near future, so this PR bumps the pinned version of the crate to the latest one (which correctly sets the header).

This commit removes all jemalloc related submodules, configuration, etc,
from the bootstrap, from the standard library, and from the compiler.
This will be followed up with a change to use jemalloc specifically as
part of rustc on blessed platforms.
In addition to to updating Cargo's submodule and Cargo's dependencies,
this also updates Cargo's build to build OpenSSL statically into Cargo
as well as libcurl unconditionally. This removes OpenSSL build logic
from the bootstrap code, and otherwise requests that even on OSX we
build curl statically.
